This^ but I often badly word it 😂

What’s the first one?

Leaking PMs between you and an ex is a dick move 😵

Why :(

No, don't need to. Just sign up with a free dev account, and plug your phone to your computer.

It's still an annoying process because you have to do this once a week but it's still something that works - a bit -

That's not the only way. You can sideload unapproved apps.

If the point is that you can do it, then yea, you can also sideload apps on iOS. It's an immense pain, limited to X apps, but you can, and you could technically pay with 0% fee...

They are not “all over the OS”. There is a pop-up message that asks you if you want to allow the app to be used as an installer. That’s it.

iirc there was more but alright

You can find your way around, but you'll spend twice the amount of time doing the same tasks that you could easily do on apps. Also, bye bye bank apps, or any Android games

If you don't use your phone a lot, understandable, but for most people, nah, not doable

and what % of apps are installed outside of the Google Play Store...?

They push warning messages all over the OS to deter users from doing that...

https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/112622

15% for the first $1M (USD) revenue earned by the developer each year 30% for earnings in excess of $1M (USD) revenue earned by the developer each year

Apple takes 30%

90%+ apps require Google play services, which basically allows them to know every app you use, and potentially more.

There’s also a surge in apps implementing integrity checks, which makes you unable to run certain apps entirely with a custom ROM

Google has the exact same policy of getting a large cut of each payment you make…

Still a pain :( they’re too afraid we’ll use regional pricing?

I would imagine you also have the right not to act

Else... they can just force you to enter the code the same way as they can force you to put your finger on the screen... or force you to look at the screen

I don’t get this thread… if you’re captured they can ask for anything

And then the fingerprint scan fails 😵

I mean I self host for 4€/month and I could fit multiple emails in there

Email is pretty much just about storage at some point, and there are a lot more cost effective servers for this, than a simple VPS

still means they’re willing to collect data

I'm selfhosting with mailcow and it's great

5€/month for email? 😵

Great source, thanks :)
